Well, if the question doesn't conform to the book; i.e. if the book (including appendix) doesn't list the answer in the form you posted the question, then the question isn't fair.
I suppose you can give it a couple of days and if no response, just think up a newer and more clear question. OK.?

Just to be clear....
The question is saying that there is 6 generations between Faramir and this fellow who was born in 1020 correct? |

My only guess would be Beregond and that would be by assuming the 1020 meant Shire Calendar, however I can't find anywhere in the Appendices where it mentions the year of Beregond's birth and I can't see him living to such a great age. If it's not him.... I'm going to have to say the question isn't valid as there is no way 6 generations of exiled Numenorean strain could last 2000 years and probably even not the 900 years between 1020 and the likely birthyear of Ondoher's second son.

Off the top of my head:
How did Elrond know Estel was in love with his daughter?

He refered to once being know by that name.
I'll rephrase: How did Elrond know Aragorn was in love with his daughter?
